Turquoise is the birthstone of December. It is believed that turquoise tends to bring good fortune, strength and helps overcome illness. Turquoise got its name from the Levantine traders called Turks who brought the stone to Europe from Persia via Turkey centuries ago. Native Americans have prized turquoise since the time of the Aztecs, who mined it in New Mexico. The natural variations that occur in turquoise are part of its appeal and beauty.

I bought a bracelet for my new daughter-in-law's birthday. It is beautiful and in hope she loves it I sent it to her today. Fingers crossed. But while looking through I found a bracelet for myself. Right now I will need to wait to buy it but can't wait. ”
